  2. 1. Designing Urban Road Congestion Charging Systems : Models and Heuristic Solution Approaches

    Author : Joakim Ekström; Jan Lundgren; Anders Karlström; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : transport modeling; congestion pricing; network design; bi-level optimization; toll locations; traffic assignment; user equilibrium; collection cost; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : The question of how to design a congestion pricing scheme is difficult to answer and involves a number of complex decisions. This thesis is devoted to the quantitative parts of designing a congestion pricing scheme with link tolls in an urban car traffic network. READ MORE

  4. 2. Dynamic posturography in evaluating human equilibrium

    Author : Torbjörn Ledin; Måns Magnusson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

    Abstract : Equilibrium assessment by means of posturography can be performed ina dynamic fashion, meaning that the environment does not remainstable during the test. In the EquiTest dynamic posturography version, the support surface and the visual surround are movable, actively or in response to body movements. READ MORE

  5. 3. Equilibrium User Centred Lighting Design Towards the development of a lighting design that is individually psychologically, physiologically and visually supportive

    Author : Monica Säter; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Psychological; physiological and visual support.; User centred lighting design;

    Abstract : Why and in what way should daylight and artificial light be designed for the indoor environment in order to fulfil goals about visual comfort and light-related health? When the outdoor and indoor interactions of man, light, colour and space (MLCS) are compared to one other, the spectral component plays the decisive role (Hollwich 1979, p. 90). READ MORE

  6. 4. Feasible Direction Methods for Constrained Nonlinear Optimization : Suggestions for Improvements

    Author : Maria Mitradjieva-Daneva; Maud Göthe-Lundgren; Torbjörn Larsson; Clas Rydergren; Anders Forsgren; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; constrained nonlinear optimization; feasible direction methods; conjugate directions; traffic equilibrium problem; sequential linear programming algorithm; stochastic transportation problem; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : This thesis concerns the development of novel feasible direction type algorithms for constrained nonlinear optimization. The new algorithms are based upon enhancements of the search direction determination and the line search steps. READ MORE

  7. 5. Essays on environmental and development economics : Public policy, resource prices and global warming

    Author : Linda Sahlén; Thomas Aronsson; Kenneth Backlund; Ing-Marie Gren; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Climate policy; technology transfer; computable general equilibrium model; environmental fiscal reform; revenue recycling; water scarcity; resource prices; Economics; Nationalekonomi;

    Abstract : This thesis consists of four self-contained papers, which are all related to important environmental and natural resource issues from a developing country perspective.Paper [I] concerns climate policy and addresses the potential welfare gains of introducing a technology transfer from the North (richer countries) to the South (poorer countries).
